Ward Rubrecht's eighth edition of cPod has music by Ed Ackerson, not-in-print anecdotes from Kaminsky and Jeff Severns Gunztel about their print stories (about gay marriage and intrigue in Harris, respectively) and a brief appearance by a Nobel laureate. Note: the Nobel laureate is not, as was rumored, Kevin Hoffman.

Speaking of Kaminsky, he has a brief post about inept criminal conduct. In my experience it is always the second auto theft and joyride of the day that gets me in trouble. But as usual, I've said too much.

From our site, don't miss my Five Songs About Thanksgiving post, nor Paul Demko's able addition in the comments. If you see anything I missed, feel free to add a comment as well.

From elsewhere on the web, and in conclusion, I give you the best turkey-related cartoon of all time. Possibly Berkeley Breathed's finest work that involved neither Opus nor Bill the Cat, this 1981 strip has stood the test of time. I may even link to this again at Christmas.
